Re: ulcer or something else??

Hi ,

You really need to see your doctor, it could be from your surgery. When

I had my gallbladder removed, there was so much infection, I had to wear

a tube to drain the stuff out.

I have problems with NSAIDS. I have tried most of them, and I have

heartburn, and not able to eat. I'm not familiar with all your meds,

check the side effects of your meds.

Please, keep us posted on how your doing. I will keep you in my

thoughts, sending good wishes to you.

Take care,

Tawny

food. This week it is so bad recently that I am doubled over with the

pain and it has kept me awake some nights! Am I crazy? Probably, but is

what i am describing sound like an ulcer or something I need to go back

to the MD who removed my gallbladder for? I'm seriously considering

going to the ER but I hate going to the ER. Again. I just thought I'd

check and see if anyone on this board had experienced this from all the

meds you have to take. I am on Sythoid, Sulindac, Prednisone, Cymbalta

and Orencia-for the moment.

I suggest you seek medical diagnosis asap. I also have no gall bladder.

I had many of the same symptoms and it was celebrex/prednisone induced diabetes.

I was also bleeding internally. I was on my meds 7 plus years not short duration

like you but....you must be evaluated.

Perhaps a walk in medical clinic...much faster and less costly than an emergency

room.

God bless.....

Hi :

I have been reading your posts, and I am wondering how you are feeling?

Are you still having your painful stomach issues? Have you seen your

Dr.?

I do hope you are feeling better. I also hope that if you are still

feeling the same way, that you have gone to the E.R. or to your Dr. You

sound so very sick.

I am praying you will get some answers to your issues, and help from

your Dr.

Wishing you better, pain free days ahead. I care.

Hugs,

Barbara
